Tom,

Luckily for me the guy that helped me build it is also the one that has test flown my other planes. In this case I am sure he would offer if not almost insist on doing the maiden. I did most of the actual building, but in scrapping the ABS turtledeck and some other things I certainly needed help from someone with experience. He is also the one teaching me how to cover it. (he's been flying about 8 years) We have already started the wing and will probably start the fuse next week. We have also managed to become good friends so that helps allot... If you have any suggestions look [link=http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/m_1312935/mpage_1/key_/anchor/tm.htm#1312935]here[/link]


Hey MUD,
If you're still out there - No one here is trying to put you down or make it sound like you can't fly or build. But just like I am steadily learning after a whole year of it, there is allot to learn and it is progressive. Think back to when you learned to drive. Ideally it was some back road with not much traffic and in an automatic. You wouldn't want to learn with 6 speed stick on the LA freeway at rush hour. Thats what they are trying to explain here...
